| How important is it for you to attain a holographic image? If it ain't holographic it ain't the highest of ends. I want it for serious listening but can enjoy listening without it often as well. | |

| The Future of Audio Amplification Great topic BTW! Amp technology HAS come a log way in recent years and continues to evolve and getting the right amp for ones needs and speakers is one of the most critical decisions to be made towards the goal of getting the best sound possible a... | |
| The Future of Audio Amplification Good quality Class D is the practical ticket these days (efficient and sound great done well) if your speakers require lots of power and current to do their best and you care about higher SPLS.The only equivalent alternative is a more traditional ... | |
| The Future of Audio Amplification @mapman What does anything I said have to do with what I've heard? I was just roughly explaining the technology to a guy who asked a question. Hmm well you did kinda put a pretty negative spin on that technical explanation I would say. | |
| The Future of Audio Amplification Kosst so what Class D amp setups have you actually heard? What other set ups are you comparing to? | |

| If you could only keep 5 record albums, what would they be? Do box sets count as 1? | |
| Amp and preamp for Klipsch If you are up for tubes check out a used Rogue Cronus Magnum. Bel Canto c5i digital integrated is another good option. It can do it all very well and has very relaxed liquid yet detailed sound that should match well with Klipsch. | |
| Is it time to just quit? Thats a good one but I'm pretty sure the ice shower would be quite unpleasant whereas my digital is the exact opposite quite lovely so can't buy it. | |
| LS50 Wireless fail, or is old gear that good? Another agoner brought a pair of ls50s over to my house to hear. In larger room off high power but less damped SS amp we both agreed the sound was not good at all. Muddled and no bass. In smaller 12x12 room with vaulted ceiling and a different hig... |
